Making Google:
Sergey Brin was one of the co-founders of the popular search engine Google alongside Larry Page. Brin met Page at Stanford University in 1995.
Brin worked with Page on a project called BackRub to find a way to measure the importance of a particular website as a search engine. This later influenced development on the PageRank algorithm.
Eventually in 1998, the pair renamed BackRub to Google as a play on words to the mathematical term. "Googol" which is a number followed by 100 zeroes to demonstrate their goal for organizing seemingly infinite amounts of information on the internet.
